Online Reparations Forum

October 19, 2023 @ 7:00 pm

New Jersey was one of the first  states to put anti-discrimination  laws into their state constitution. Why then, is New Jersey one of the most segregated states in the nation when it comes to schools and housing? Why is the wealth gap among races so wide?

Find out by participating in our Fall Forum on October 19, 2023, at 7PM on Zoom.

Our speakers will be Dr. Walter Greason, Macalester College, who was a speaker with us earlier this year and Jean-Pierre Brutus, Senior Counsel at the New Jersey Institute of Social Justice.
